Less than 24 hours after the 2-0 win over Atlético-MG in the Brazilian Championship, São Paulo’s squad returned to the Barra Funda Training Center on Sunday morning (6).

The group began preparations focused on the clash against Boca Juniors, scheduled for next Tuesday (8) at 9:30 p.m. Brasília time, at La Bombonera Stadium in Argentina, for the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals.

The day’s schedule was organized according to the players’ physical demands in the latest domestic round:

Starters: The players who featured for most of the match at Morumbi followed a recovery program inside the training center facilities, including cycling, weight training, hydrotherapy, and cryotherapy.

Other players: The rest of the squad completed a physical workout in the gym and then took part in on-pitch activities under the guidance of Dorival Júnior. The technical session prioritized possession drills, pressing after losing the ball, quick circulation, and small-sided games with support from youth academy players.

Updates from the medical department

The coaching staff received positive news in attack while shaping the squad traveling to Argentina:

Victor Sá: The forward completed his physical transition after recovering from a sprained right ankle and trained without restrictions with the group.

Lucca: Recovered from a fractured jaw, the young forward took part in the entire training session with the first team for the first time, continuing his physical readjustment.

São Paulo will hold their final training session on Brazilian soil on Monday morning (7) at the training center. The delegation’s departure for Buenos Aires is scheduled for the afternoon.
